The premium on gold at Paris is 9/ per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10 . d. the ounce for standard gold, gives an exc h ange o f 25. 38., and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25. 571, it follows that gold is 0.70 per cent. lower at Paris than in London. The price of sovereigns at New York is 5 dollars, which establishes a par of exchange in paper of 114 per cent., and the course of exchan ge at New York on London being 1051 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 6 per cent. against England.

INCORRODIBLE ARTIFICIAL TEETH, from a SINGLE ONE to a COMPLETE SET, matching exactly in form or colour the adjoin ing ones. These teeth will not corrode or become discoloured ; they are fixed without WIRES or other LIGATURES, on a principle which at ords support to the adjoining teeth, however loose, and answer every purpose of MASTICATION and ARTICULATION. To clergymen and public orators, labouring under defective ,ronuncia tion, 11,Ionsieur J. M. MALL %N'S method of replacing Teeth will be found peculiarly valuable, as it obviates all defects of articulation. The use of Artificial Teeth, in some instances, has been found objec tionable by invalids taking medicines that have a tendency to discolour them, or in the performance oi oporations which compol t h e ir removal, perhaps, in the presen ce of an attendant or dom e s tic ; Messrs. M., how. ever, have been succossful in removing these objections, by constructing teeth for those nurpo - et of substa nces, and in such a manlier as to render them capal , le o withstanding effects of the most inimical nature.

CORN EXCHANGE. There are this week moderate supplies of all kinds of Grain, and a middling quantity of Flour. Wheat maintains the terms of Monday ; but, as there is tittle left for sale, the millers are indisposed to purchase. Barley supports last quotations. Beans and Peas are unaltered.

COLONIAL MARKETS. _ There is nothing fresh in these Markets, nor at present any appearance of anything likely to change one of its general features. B.P. Sugar oonti. noes to sell languidly, and prices tend to lower figures. The stock is now much about the same as it was at this time last year. Fine crushed is 365. and dull. In Coffee nothing done to-day, by public sale. A floating car go of Brazil fetched 41e. The stock of Pritish Plantation Coffee is 1,59.9 casks and 1,098 barrels and bags; Ceylon, 15,301 bags; Mocha, 3,433 bales; Brazil, 37,170, bags. To-day we have public sales of 1,000 bags of Bengal Sugar and 2.59 casks 107 cases Foreign East India. %The present state of the Foreign Sugar Market is firm, as it has been for some time, and the quantity was too small to produce any change in the article. The whole of the Bengal did not sell, and prices, where altered, were easier, and perhaps, on the whole, lower. We have som: large arrivals of Mauritius Sugar, off the coast, and this wiil tend to depress that commodity. Even spices now, if sold, must go lower. In fact, with the solitary excep tion, no commodity of Colonial produce for consumption can be re garded, but as tending to decline. The imports continue rather light.

We are largely supplied with most descriptions of Grain, Flour, Oatmeal, &c. from Ireland and coastwise. This morning's roarkel was rather thinly attended. Prime new and old Wheat on a limited inquiry, maintained late prices, but other qualities were somewhat de pressed in value, and no demand was felt from the interior. Oats were difficult to part with at our last quotations. Oatmeal was offering abundantly, and in the absence of any extensive purchasers was selling at 3 to 6 per 2401b5. Beans and Peas were sold in retail at the currency of this day week, and the same remark applies to Barley. In Flour there was little doing, yet this article remains perfectly steal,' as to prices.

Thursday a fire broke out in the large cotton mill belonging to Messrs. Buxton, of Rochdale. The building was in one entire blaze before the engines arrived, and in about an hour it was a compl ete hea p of ruins, with nothing bat the walls standing. It is not known how the fire origi nated ; but it is supposed to have begun in the scutching room.—Manchester Guardian. A collision between a Hampstead omnibus and a gentleman's private cab took place yesterday morning in the narrow part of St. Giles's, opposite the church. The gentle man was thrown out of the cab with great violence, and re ceived much inj ur y; he was taken u p quite insensible, and bleeding profusely from a severe wound on the temple. From a card which wa s found in his pocket it appeared that his name was Calvert Attwood, and that he lived in London -street, Fitzroy-square, and he was conveyed th er e w ith a ll p oss ibl e expe dition. The accident was occasioned by the wilful negli gence of the driver of the omnibus, which rendered it impos sible for Mr. Attwood in any way to avoid the collision.

Silt NV ALTER SCOTT'S MONUMENT.—Mr. Cadell has published a letter to the Duke of Hamilton, in which b e arraigns the taste of the sub-com m itt ee i n t h e i r se lection of a plan for the monument. Th e sum su b scr ib ed is on ic 6,000/., and the plan chosen combi nes arc hi tecture and scu lpture, each o f a description which, if well executed, would absorb the whole sum. The architectural monument is a Gothic spire or steeple, 135 feet high, to be placed at the east side of Charlotte square. Mr. Cadell asks what relation this has to the works and character of the gre a t nove li st ; an d how it A' ill harmonize with the Grecian, or rath er th e R oman sty l e, of the adjoin in g buildings? The design, too, is a plagiarism, being substa ntiall y a copy of the spi re p l anned b y Mr. Hamil. toil for the church , which was to be e recte d on t h e C astleh i ll. A statue of Sir IN alter is to be pl ace d i n a n i che of the building, and this statue is to be executed by Mr. Steele, and the expense defrayed from the remnant of the funds, if any remain, after the spire is erected.—Scotsman.

On Monday morning between seven and eight o'clock , a gentl eman, a b out 35 years of age, having the appearance of a military officer, was observed walking in Hyde Park (on the barks of both sides of the Serpentine River, and round the basin), apparently in a desponding state of mind, but not at tlipting any rash act on his person. About half-past eight o'clock some workmen, proceeding through the Park , near the basin by Grosvenor-gate, observed the unfortunate gentleman mount the iron railing of the basin and leap into the water, which i s very d eep, an d i mme di ate l y di sappear .

ADVERTISING MONEY LENDERS.—We have often called the attention of our readers to the impudent attempts of the London advertising money lenders to get in cautious people into their clutches, under pretence of dis counting bills for them ; and we have now lying before us two letters, with the post mark of the 12th inst. addressed to two respectable houses in this town, drawn un in very similar terms, indeed almost verbatim the same, but one purporting to be signed by J. and W. Collins, Waterloo Bridge-road, and tl,e other by J. and J. Grant, Albany-road, London. Both these letters are directed in the same handwriting ; and we may observe that it is a hand we have been accustomed to see in such letters for these dozen years past ; the names of the pretended money-lending firms, however, having been changed perhaps twenty times within the period. Of course the par ties arc all swindlers.—Manchester Guardian. The trading operations of the Bank of England are a sub. ject of very warm controversy in the city, but it lies, neverthe less, in a very narrow compass. If gold is wanted and may be exported at a profit to New York, the merchants will send it ; the Bank Directors need not interfere, but may remain quiet in their parlour, unvisited by any forebodinl,Ts of a doubt ful or ill managed speculation. If the gold is not wanted, it may share the fate which has befallen our manufactures upon the reaction of the American crisis, and remain unproductive at home. It is absurd to mix up with the consideration of this question any arguments of the good to be effected in America in bringing about a resumption of cash payments, and the con sequent advantage to England in restoring activity to our manufacturing system. All this will be effected, if at all, in the natural progress of events ; the Bank is not wanted except to give the gold in exchange for notes to those who intend to export it. . . It happens, indeed, that numerous parties, besides the Bank, are already in the field, and engaged in sending out bullion; several of the most eminent merchants in London and Liverpool are making their insurances for specie simul taneously with the Bank, and placed accordingly in all the peril of competition with an overgrown monopoly, which is going out of its way to make all the profit that is possible, conscious, perhaps, that the end of all is near at hand. Thus we have two gigantic establishments, the Bank of England and Mr. Biddle's self-called United States Bank, combining to depress the mercantile interest on both sides of the Atlantic, which they have already brought, by their vicious system of management, into distress and confusion. After all, most people find a difficulty of compre hending how this gold is to be employed when it ar rives out ; how is it to pass into the possession of the banks, and produce the great desideratum of a return to cash payments ; and what Mr. Cowell is to receive from them in exchange for his sovereigns. This, however, is his affair. Both the Bank and the other exporters may be pretty sure that very little of the gold now sent will ever re turn. The policy of General Jackson had already accumu lated a very large metallic circulation when the banks broke by one consent. The greater part was hoarded and with drawn from circulation, not sent to England. It remains in the country, and is only not brought out again because people have very properly lost all confidence in the banks. But if the inhabitants, who must be by far the best judges, decline to carry back their gold and silver to the vaults of the banks on the spot, will it be a safe course for the Bank of England to trust them ? The question is beset with difficulties on every side, and it is not to be expected, when things are thus taken out of their natural and proper course, that,.the issue can be good. MORNING POST.—The news received from Lisbon this morning caused a decline of about per cent. in the Portu. guese Bonds, but the Dutch Securities were done during the day at an improvement of 1 per cent. on yesterday's quota tions, and the value of most other descriptions of Fore i g n Stock was well maintained ; the Dutch Bonds were, how ever, not quite so favourably quoted at the close of the Market. Consols opened firmly, and left off at an advance of + per cent. We hear no specific cause assigned for the change. The measures taken by the Bank of England for the relief of the American trad e ma y have had sonseinfluence on prices, as they seem to be viewed with much satisfaction by commercial men. That they should be equally so to those who have long since made up their minds to disapprove of the policy pursued by the Directors, be it what it may, is more than was to have been expected. We begin, we confess, to be quite confounded by the strictures of the Press on monetary affairs. A Morning; Paper of this day has a strange mixture of praise and censure, as exhibited in its different articles relative to the conduct of the Bank. The cant so often ut tered of late about a " secure and well-regulated paper cur rency, founded on correct and defined principles, and subjected to a controul which would guarantee a strict adherence to those principles," is once more repbated. We are at no loss to con ceive that those who are so anxious for the curtailment of the power of the Bank of England with regard to their issues may at times find the somewhat uncertain action of the Directors inconvenient; but the Government know better, we hope, than to pay the least attention to these anonymous and sinister representations. Consols left off at 93, to for Money and for Account, Exchequer Bills at 62 , . to 645. premium., and India Bonds at 655. to 665. premium. The Dutch Funds seem to have been moved by an expectation which is enter tained by parties interested in them, of an arrangement being at length about; to be concluded between the Dutch Government and the Belgians. It has not escaped observa tion that the Russian, French, Prussian, Belgian, and Spanish Ministers transacted business yesterday at the Fo reign Office, and the advices received this morning from the Continent arc more communicative upon the Dutch and Belgian affair than they have been far a very long time past. The Handelsblad of Friday says, in noticing some accounts received from Berlin, under date of the 11 th instant, allusion is made to the possible settlement of the long pending question to which we have referred, adding that Bel gium must certainly be solicitous of such a consummation ; and that whenever it shall happen that the leading Govern ments of Europe are occupied with the pacification of Spain, the disputes of the Netherlands and Belgic Governments must of necessity be brought under consideration also, in which case a final arrangement may be calculated upon. The Luxem bourg question will, however, it is presumed, have in the first instance to be settled by the German Confederation at Frank fort. The Amsterdam papers of the 17th instant refer parti cularly to this statement, the pacific demonstrations which it contains being alleged as the cause of some purchases of stock which had been made in that market for account of parties at the Hague, and a consequent rise in prices. Here the quota tion at the close of business this afternoon was, for the Fire per Cent. Bonds, 1031 to ; and for the Two-and-a- Half per Cents., 54 to The former were, however, done, at one time of the day, at 104. Active Spanish, including the un paid coupons, were last marked, 214 to Five per Cent. Por tuguese, 291- to 30 ; Three per Cent. ditto, 191 to 20 ; Co lumbian, 2SI- to 29 ; Mexican, 2Si- to ; Peruvian, 21 to : I; and Brazilian, 781- to 79. MORNING CHRONICLE. —There has been a further improve. ment of n per cent. Consols, and affairs in the English Stock market are altogether buoyant. The last price, both for money and the account, was 931 to -a. Exchequer bills re main at 625. to 645. premium. The shares of the Asphalte Mastic Company were intro duced this morning. The first quotation was 6 to 8 premium, at which a large number of shares were disposed of in small quantities, but there were strong buyers in the market, chiefly on French account, we believe, which not only supported the price, but occasioned an advance to 10 prem. The last price, however, was 7 to 9 prem. In the other shares there was very little going on. Birmingham, old, left off at 86 to 88 prem. ; ditto new, 261 to 274 prem. ; Southampton, 45 to 46 prem. ; ditto new, 21 to 22 prem. ; Great Western, 261 to 274 prem. ; Leeds and Manchester, 18 to 20 prem. ; Brighton, 2,1 to :;fr per share ; Blackwall, 3 to h prem. ; Croy don, 11 to 1 dis. ; ditto new, 6 to 7 prem. ; Greene ich, 3 to 2 dis. ; and North Midland, 5 to 61 prem. Dutch Securities, for the reasons shown below, were greatly in demand to-day, and the Five per Cents. advanced to 104 to 1, and the Two-and-a-Half per Cents. 54 to i a the closing quotation, a rise in both cases of about 11 per cent. since yesterday. Portuguese are flat in consequence of the intelli gence received this morning from Lisbon, but they hare not materially receded, for it is argued that the disturbance has strengthened the position of the Queen, inasmuch as the club party were defeated, and shown to the country not to be so powerful as was generally supposed. The Five per Cents. were last marked at 29 to 301, and the Three per Cents. at 191 to 20. Spanish arc a little better, the Active Stock leaving off at 21/ to i l -. Deferred, at 64 to 71; and Passive, at 47T to 51. Brazilian arc 781 to 1 ?- i , which is a reaction of about per cent. from yesterday's prices. Mexican are 281- to 9 9 : Peruvian, 21 to 22 ; and Colombian, 281 to 29. Dutch securities, which have been gradually receding lately, improved a little in the afternoon of yesterday, and underwent this morning a more marked rise. Various causes were as signed for this alteratian for the better, and the true occasion appears not to be generally known ; although it is a matter which every person ought to bear in mind and reflect upon, especially those who are credulous enough to place confidence in Dutch securities, and invest their whole fortunes in them for the mere advantage of a better income. .Whenever a fall occurs in Dutch stock it will be remarked that as soon as advices can be received from Holland a sudden rally takes place, as may he instanced to-day. It is always brought about by the effort of a powerful individual in Holland, one of the cleverest men in the world, perhaps, who shrewdly knows that if once Dutch securities fall into discredit in this country, a tremendous depression would be inevitable, and therefore makes it a point to watch the proceedings of the London market, and to support it when occasion may require. This is the true state of things ; and if any one will pay attention to passing events the correctness of this assertion will soon show itself. We have repeated put the public on their guard on this subject, to the great annoyance and anger, we arc aware, of many persons who are interested in keeping up the delusion ; but it is our province to do so, and we do not hesitate to fulfil our . duty, f. - a- we are perfectly convinced that sooner or later, when it is t late, perhaps, the publii! will find out that the whole sptem is a perfect delusion. What would be the state of Dutch finances if anything were to happen to that individual who cleverly keeps everything together in Holland? The simple circumstance, however, of no Dutchman holding the securities of his own c ount r y, a nd pr e f err i ng t o invest his money in British and other sec u rities, by which lie receives two per cent. less than in Dutch Stock, ought of itself to open the eyes of every body. It has been currently reported to-day, as the cause of the rise, that no loan will be requieed for Holland, but this is absurd. The King f Holland is too clear sighted a man to ask for a money grant without being fully convinced of the necessity of doing so. The fact of The matter is, that the Chambers have thrown out the proposal'for the loan of 30,000,000 guilders by a majo rity of 16. a most unexpected blow, no doubt, to the pro jects of the King. It ?it very well, therefore, to say now that no loan is required wheilit cannot be obtained. What is to be done next, or how the dividend of about 600,000/. now due upon . the Belgic part of the foreign debt of Holland is to be paid, we are much at a loss to comprehend, for it is next to im possible that any new taxes can b 3 levied on that country, where the means of the people are described as almost ex hausted, and pauperism spreading with a rapidity which is scarcely surpassed in Ireland itself. The choice will now be, we should think, between paying the foreign dividends or dis banding the army, submitti ng t o th e fi na l sett l ement o f t h e Belgic question, and doing, in short, everything which is gall and wormwood to the King. It is scarcely necessary to con clude that King William of Holland will prefer his own pre servation to the interest of foreigners. Holland having been once a bankrupt before, on finding that no more money can he obtained by pretending to keep up the dividends, he will have but very little hesitation in leaving the foreign bond holders to their fate. Every exertion, no doubt, will be made to maintain the credit of the country, but the period appears to be fast advancing when it will be found impossible, ; to do so. We, however, have done our duty :we have called attention to and cautioned the public on this point, and t if that inevitable event comes upon them like a clap of thunder, they will only have to blame their own incredulity. The advices from Canton, which are to the 10th of De cember, mention that the authorities there still persisted in refusing to hold any communication with the British agent, which had necessarily occasioned a dulness in business. The opium trade at Canton was quite suSpended, hut ens carried on to a limited extent on the coast. Five vessels, laden with teas to the extent of 10,000,0001b5., were on the eve of sail ing for England, but the prices at which th cy were shipped were high. A most material error of print occurred in this article of yesterday, but one which must have been obvious to every body. Instead of " 150/.," it ought to have been " 150,0001.,"... when speaking of the amount to which the liabilities of one of the suspended American firms had been reduced. MORNING HERALD. —It is now Well understood amongst our monetary circles that the Bank have resolved to depart from the usual practice of banking associations, and to become merchants in every sense of the word, by dealing in bullion, foreign bills, and, if it should so suit, foreign produce. Time alone will resolve whether this departure from the strict rules of banking practice and custom—this movement towards making that would-13/ national monetary establishment a national and foreign moot de picte, will benefit either the corporatio❑ or the mercantile community at large. It appears, however, that they have determined to remit bullion to the extent of one million to Mr. Cowell at New York, the shipment of a part of which has been already ar ranged, with a view to its being employed by their agent in the purchase of bills, &c. It is also calculated that private mer chants will export bullion to nearly the same extent ; so that in the course of a very short period it may be calculated that two millions of bullion will leave this country. This operation has had no immediate effect either in the commercial Money Market or on the Stock Exchange ; it is, however anticipated that if commerce by this means receives any stimulus, the effect of this sudden abstraction of bullion will be seriously felt about two months hence, when, probably, the Bank will again put the screw on the Money Market, by restricting their issues. The exchanges with Holland and the Hans Towns have not much altered from the quotations of the last post day, but on Paris they are rather higher. On Amsterdam they rule at 1 41 a 12 5, on Rotterdam the same; on Hainburg 13 13i a 13 131,-, and on Paris at 25fr. 87 c. to 25fr. 9‘); 1 2 -c. A rumour has obtained to-Clay, on the authority of a Berlin paper, which professes to have had information from the Hague, that the dispute between Belgium and Holland is again about to be reconsidered, and this, coupled with the statements in the Dutch advices, that the Minister of Finance had determined to withdraw his project for the new lean, has had the effect of improving the Dutch Stocks in this market, as well as at Amsterdam. A somewhat novel mode of performing the marriage ceremony has taken place not a hundred miles from Curloss. A knight of the plane having fairly overstept the bounds of the Temperance Society on Sunday night last, took it into his head to pay a visit to the servant lasses of a gallant officer, after having been prohibited on pain of death to make the smallest trespass on the gallant gentleman's property. The inmates of the household being all in bed before he reached the place, the object of his desire had to give him admittance before getting fully dressed, and, havin got only a few paces along the passage, was accoste d by the' Captain habited in his dressing-gow n with a swor d in his hand, who irstantly demanded of the young man the purport of his 1111 P, sion, and was answered as hurriedly as possible, that it was 'nis servant maid he was in quest of, when the worthy justice put the question to both parties if they were willing to take each other in the bands of wedlock, was answered in the affir mative, when he instantly called from their slumbers others or his establishment to be witnesses, who got as short a time to obtain marriage dresses as did the trembling bride. The Gal lant Captain immediately went through the marriage cere mony, still holding in his hand the fearful weapon, and having finished his oration returned his sword to the scabbard, and sent all the parties to bed. CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.-During the last few days the following cases have been prosecuted by Mr. Thomas, the Secretary to the " Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals," at Exeter-hall, at the various Police offices : Union-hull, James Westley was convicted of cruelty in ill-treating a donkey in the Dover-road, by beating it with a thick stick over the head : fined los. and costs, by Mr. Jeremy. James Green was also convicted of cruelty, in kicking a horse in the Borough-road several times in the belly, in a very violent and wanton manner ; fined 10s. and costs by Mr. Jeremy. Guildhall--James Perryman,. the driver of Miller's Pimlico omnibus 364, was convicted of cruelty, in ill-treating his horses in Fleet -street, and fined 40s. and costs by Alderman White. Henry Dring, the driver of the London Conveyance Company's omnibus 140, was convicted of cruelty, in ill-treating his horses in Newgate street, and fined 10s. and costs by Alderman Farebrother. Henry Holland, the driver of omnibus 3,263, was also con victed of cruelty, in ill-treating his horses in Cheapside, and fined ss. and costs. Bow-street—James Perryman, the driver of the Pimlico omnibus 364, was convicted upon a second charge, for cruelty and ill-treating his horses in the Strand, and fined 20s. and costs by Mr. Twyford. The R bore cases were proved by the Society's constables, Rogerson and Piper, and other witnesses; in most of them the defendants paid the penalties and were discharged. Ott Friday last, the Essex Stag Hounds had one of their most brilliant runs, which was sufficient to try the mettle of man and horse ; a fine deer, " Sir Jacob" was enlarged near Good Easter, before a field of determined ones; stood away beyond High Easter, turned to the ri . ght, and was a few seconds in view, when the pace became awful ; to the left of Good Easter, turned short of Skreens Wood to the water, at Whaples Mill, without the slightest check, where he was amongst the hounds, when the softer ones took tills opportu nity of prudently retiring. Went away again to the left of Beauchamp Reding to High Laver, along the meadows of Norton Brook, turned short of Hazel Wood 'Common, and was taken close to North Weald Hall, wherc the choice few who lived to the end, were most hospitably entertained. The ground rode light, or the distance, which could scarcely be less than nineteen miles, could not have been run in one hour and a half ; arid perhaps few ever before saw bounds keep so well together, at such a killing pace, PERJURY.—On Saturday last Ball and Thornton Were each sentenced to twelve months' hard labour, for wilful perjury .at Nottingham, in bringing fraudulent. informations against a van-owner of Sutton-in-Ashfield, and Robt. Smith, beerhouse-keeper, Carlton. Our space'will not allow us to detail the particulars, but we can assure our readers that the Loughborough Magistrates have not only repeatedly convicted on the evidence of these infamous hirelings, when they were proved to be guilty of perjury by much clearer e'. idence than was adduced on Saturday, but given theta writtl n characters —and yet these 'Magistrates are still allowed t o grace the Bench. —Leicester Mercury. THE OLDEN TIMES.-It appears bv Lord Fair . .. ... ... . .. ...- fax's book of the Household establishment of Hoary VIII., that eleven o'clock was the hour for dinner ; and, in 1500, dinner was at ten and supper at four. 11Ir. Norris, Wi',liani Brereton, and young Western were the only three allowed to enter the King's bedchamber. N. B. They were alt three executed afterwards to justify the King's divorce. 175etween six and seven the proper officers were to make a fire every morning, and straw his Highness's Privy Chambe'.s. Coals were only allowed to the King's, Queen's, and Lady Mar)'s chanibr. The Queen's Maids of Honour bad t. chet loaf, a manchet, a gallon of ale, and a chine of beef, for their breakfast. On Saturday, Andrew Mulligan was crossing Deansgate, in the narrow part of the street, near the market at the corner of Bridge-street; and the street being crowded with carts, &c., he was running behind a horse tied to a cart, when the animal, which was not at all vicious, beco rn iv, alarmed, kicked the lad on the abdomen, throwing him to some distance. On a post martem examination, it wa ,- , found that one of the smaller bowels was ruptured, and 'that the protrusion of the contents caused his death. —/ l a nchester Guardian.

It is a singular thing to see the divers and sea-ducks thriving in the very heart of London ; storks wheeling about high. above the houses of Pimlico and St. James's; and the smew (mergus albellus) eating bread from the hands of the, eocknies.
